I'm pleased to finally announce GtkImageView 1.5.0. I'm even more pleased to ALSO announce PyGtkImageView 1.0.0:

Description

GtkImageView is a simple image viewer widget for GTK+. Similar to the image viewer panes in gThumb or Eye of Gnome. It makes writing image viewing and editing applications easy. Among its features are:

• Mouse and keyboard zooming.
• Scrolling and dragging.
• Adjustable interpolation.
• Fullscreen mode.
• GIF animation support.
• Ability to make selections.
• Extensible using a tool system.

PyGtkImageView is the Python bindings for the same thing.

Examples

Here is the canonical example for using the widget::

#include <gtkimageview/gtkimagescrollwin.h>
#include <gtkimageview/gtkimageview.h>
...
GtkWidget *view = gtk_image_view_new ();
GtkWidget *scroll = gtk_image_scroll_win_new (GTK_IMAGE_VIEW (view));

/* Where "box" is a GtkBox already part of your layout. */
gtk_box_pack_start (GTK_BOX (box), scroll, TRUE, TRUE, 0);

GdkPixbuf *pixbuf = gdk_pixbuf_new_from_file ("someimage.png", NULL);
gtk_image_view_set_pixbuf (GTK_IMAGE_VIEW (view), pixbuf, TRUE);

Same thing using PyGtkImageView::

import gtk
import gtk.gdk
import gtkimageview

view = gtkimageview.ImageView()
scroll = gtkimageview.ImageScrollWin(view)

# Where "box" is a gtk.Box already part of your layout.
box.pack_start(scroll)
pixbuf = gtk.gdk.pixbuf_new_from_file("someimage.png")
view.set_pixbuf(pixbuf)

Future

• Perl bindings.
• Gtk# bindings.
• Haskell bindings.
